• 2．It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation，it turns into an argument.We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly my mother will push the conversation into the Third World War.She'll talk about my lack of（缺乏）bright future because I don't plan to be a doctor.And much to her disappointment，I don't want to do any job related to science，either.In fact，when I was pushed to say that I planned to major （主修）in English，she nearly had a heart attack.
     "Why can't you be like my co-worker's son？" she shouts all the time.Her co-worker's son received a four-year scholarship（獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金）and is now earning 70，000 dollars a year as an engineer.I don't know what to say except that I simply can't be like Mr.Perfect as I've called the unnamed co-worker's son.I can't be like him.I am the type of the person who loves to help out in the community（社區(qū)），write until the sun goes down，and most of all，wants to achieve something because of loving it，not because of fame（名聲）or salary.
     I understand why my mother is worried about my future major.I've seen my mother struggle（艱難）to raise me on her small salary and work long hours.She leaves the house around 6：30 am and usually comes back home around 5：00 pm or even 6：00 pm.
     However，I want her to know that by becoming a doctor，it doesn't mean I'll be successful.I'd rather follow my dreams and create my own future.
  
  （1）What does the underlined sentence in paragraph I mean？

  
  A．The author's mother argued about something angrily with him.
  B．The author's mother expressed different opinions on the war.
  C．The author's mother liked talking with him but got angry easily.
  D．The author's mother quite disagreed about what to eat for dinner.
  （2）Why does the author's mother mention her co-worker's son？

  
  A．To persuade the author to become a doctor.
  B．To tell the author to learn as hard as he can.
  C．To encourage the author to receive a scholarship.
  D．To ask the author to earn much more money.
  （3）What makes the author's mother worried about his major？

  
  A．Her plans for future.

• 3．Email has brought the art of letter writing back to life，but some experts think the resulting spread of bad English does more harm than good．
     Email is a form of communication that is changing，for the worse，the way we write and use language，say some communication researchers．It is also changing the way we interact（交流） and build relationship．These are a few of the recently recognized features of email，say experts，which should cause individuals and organizations to rethink the way they use email．
     "Email has increased the spread of careless writing habits， " says Naomi Baron，a professor of linguistics（語(yǔ)言學(xué)） at an American university．She says the poor spelling，grammar，punctuation and sentence structure of emails reflect（反映） a growing unconcern about the way we write．
     Baron argues that we shouldn't forgive and forget the poor writing often shown in email． "The more we use email and its tasteless writing，the more it becomes the normal way of writing， " the professor says．
     Others say that despite its poor writing，email has finished what several generations of English teachers couldn't：it has made writing fashionable again．
     "Email is a critical new communication technology． " says Ian Lancashire，a professor of English at Toronto University． "It fills the gap between spoken language and the formal methods of writing that existed before email．It is the purest form of written speech． "
     Lancashire says email has the mysterious ability to get people who are usually scared by writing to get their thoughts flowing easily onto a blank screen．He says this is because of email's close similarity to speech． "It's like a circle of four or five people around a campfire， " he says．
     Still，he accepts that this new-found freedom to express themselves often gets people into trouble．Emails sent in a day almost exceed（超過(guò)） the number of letters mailed in a year．But more people are recognizing the content of a typical email message is not often exact．
  
  （1）From what Baron says in the third paragraph we can see that

  ．
  A．careless people use email more than careful people
  B．email requires people to change their native language
  C．professors in universities don't need to use email
  D．people communicate by email full of mistakes
  （2）What does the underlined word "it"（in Paragraph 4）refer to？

  
  A．The poor writing．
  B．Email．
  C．The good writing．
  D．A new communication technology．
  （3）In Lancashire's opinion，email is a wonderful technology because

  ．
  A．it can be useful all over the world
  B．it is the fastest way to communicate
  C．we can express ourselves in a free way
  D．we can save a lot of paper
  （4）This passage mainly shows us that

  ．
  A．people should stop using email to communicate
  B．experts hold different opinions about email writing
  C．Americans only use email to communicate
  D．email makes people lose interest in English

• 4．Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to（適應(yīng)）change.However，this means that what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later.When words or phrases change，it can make speakers feel "wrong" because they were taught that something else was "right."
     One example of this is a term connected to school itself.Today，it is common for people to say that they "graduated high school" or college.The word "graduate" has two common meanings.One is to mark off a series.The other meaning is closely related.As you move through school，you cross off a series of achievements：grade school，middle school，high school，and college.So，in a way，school itself is "graduated."
     So，when people used to speak of getting a degree，they said they "graduated from college." "To graduate college" would have meant to mark it off by year — the first year，the second year etc.Similarly，"to graduate to college" would have meant to complete high school and move up to the next level.
     But as happens often in English，when people understand your meaning，smaller words can disappear. "I graduated college" is now easy to say.This may distress people who were taught that you had to use "from" to be correct.But this is not the first time this phrase has been simplified.It used to be that you said，"I was graduated from college，" instead of， "I graduated from college."
     You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose.Who could imagine that we would still say we "dial" a phone number when we now push buttons on our cellphone？Yet we know what it means.
  
  （1）What do we know about the word "graduate"？

  
  A．It has two similar meanings.
  B．There was a change in its meanings.
  C．It had nothing to do with school at first.
  D．It got an extra meaning during its development.
  （2）Which of the following is the newest usage of "graduate"？

  
  A．I was graduated from college.
  B．I was to graduate to college.
  C．I graduated from college.
  D．I graduated college.
  （3）The underlined word "distress" probably means "

  ".
  A．change
  B．correct
  C．worry
  D．hurt
  （4）What's the best title for the text？

  
  A．Right or wrong？
  B．Words come and go in English
  C．English is a very changeable language
  D．How should English be taught in school？

• 5．（1）

  You probably think you will never be a top student.This is not necessarily so，however.Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here's how：
     Plan your time carefully.When planning your work，you should make a list of things that you have to do.After making this list，you should make a schedule of your time.First your time for eating，sleeping，dressing，etc.Then decide a good，regular time for studying. （2）

  A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems，but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.
     Find a good place to study.Look around the house for a good study area.Keep this space，which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room，free of everything but study materials.No games，radios，or television.When you sit down to study，concentrate on the subject.
     Make good use of your time in class.（3）

  Listening carefully in class means less work later.Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
     Study regularly.When you get home from school，go over your notes，review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day，read that material.（4）

  If you do these things regularly，the material will become more meaningful，and you'll remember it longer.
     Develop a good attitude towards tests.The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.They help you remember your new knowledge.The world won't end if you don't pass a test，so don't be over worried.
     （5）

  You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
  
  A.Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.
  B.There are other methods that might help you with your studying.
  C.Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.
  D.No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.
  E.This will help you understand the next class.
  F.Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.
  G.Maybe you are an average student.
